Hey guys.
I'm Water Lily, and this is my solo project. I'm not into a band or anything, those are just original songs or covers I recorded myself.
I've been writing songs for several years, even when I was a little kid. I started to play the guitar about one year and a half ago, and I'm finally able to add music to my words.
I saw a lot of people were posting their music, so, I told myself, "why don't you give it a try ?"
And here we go.
Otherwise, I'm 15, I live in France and I love music.
Why this name?
Well... It's kinda weird actually. I was looking for an artist name, and then I had this strange dream one night, when I was telling a guy Water Lily was my artist name. He seemed to like it.
And then I woke up and thought this could be nice, since one of my nicknames's Lily. My friends seemed to like it too, so, here we go.
Do you play live?
No, not really. I played 'High' at the school's party with two friends, that's all x) But yeah, I like playing live.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think it's great, because it gives young artists the opportunity to be listened. And it gives listeners the opportunity to discover more kinds of music.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I don't know. It's being famous against keeping a kind of freedom, isn't it ?
Your influences?
Nirvana, Sara Bareilles, Panic At The Disco, Michelle Branch, I listen to a lot of things, rock, pop, grunge, jazz, blues... It's hard to say what really are my influence. I guess it's a bit of everything.
Equipment used:
My guitars, I have A Gibson SG, a Squier Stratocaster, and also an acoustic one. But I mostly use the Gibson to record. I have a MacBook with GarageBand, and an M-Audio keyboard and this small box you use to put your microphone and your guitar in. Sennheiser microphone.
But well, my guitar and my voice are what I use most.
Anything else...?
I try to do all the instruments, but I'm nothing but a novice guitar player. So the playing may not be this good. I don't care, it's for fun.
Music is the thing that matters most for me.
